Travelling, Sports, Reading, Meeting People, leading

I have travel to a few countries in my life time and that includes Fiji where I lived for more than 30 years. I have travelled for work or leisure and stopped over in countries such Iraq, Tonga, Kuwait, India, Papua New Guinea etc. I spent most of the time reading news via the internet and most of the times on Facebook and sometimes I spent time reading novels. I enjoy meeting people end establishing a friendly relationship with them that last a life time friendships and I enjoy leading groups as I believe that I am a born leader.
